What are the Advantages of Using Nanoparticles for Gene Delivery?
Using nanoparticles for gene delivery offers several advantages: - Enhanced Delivery: Nanoparticles can efficiently deliver gene editing molecules to specific cells or tissues, overcoming biological barriers. - Protection: They protect gene editing molecules from enzymatic degradation, increasing their stability and effectiveness. - Targeting: Functionalizing nanoparticles with specific ligands allows for targeted delivery to desired cells, reducing off-target effects. - Controlled Release: Nanoparticles can be designed for controlled release, ensuring sustained and localized delivery of gene editing molecules.
